- tq all the antenna guru's, been thinking of adding a parasitic element to my existing 135 quarter wave vertical to give me a little more gain to the NW my question would it work?the the quarter wave

- Well - yes - it can help. You can probably get a bit of gain - but maybe more importantly - get some front/back. One limitation is that you will only get it over a pretty narrow frequency range (30 k

- One important detail, if I am not wrong:You need more than a quarter wave parasitic elements. Otherwise, you'll be doing a parasitic element for around 3,6 MHz.It must be half wavelength minus 4% - 5

- Well, yes and no ! No, so long it is isolated on a tree. Quater wave must be grounded with at least one quaterwave elevated radial or with good counterponce. It works when it is half wave insulated.
